Purpose and Specifications

Mobil Super 3000 Formula D1 5W-30 is a full synthetic engine oil engineered for gasoline engines in American, Japanese, and Korean vehicles. This premium oil delivers long-term engine protection across a wide temperature range, from cold winter starts to high-heat highway driving.

Key Performance Features:

• Flows easily at temperatures as low as -39°C for reliable cold starts
• Maintains protective film at operating temperatures up to 235°C
• Prevents sludge buildup and engine rust through advanced synthetic chemistry
• Reduces friction to improve fuel economy
• Protects turbochargers and direct injection engines from wear and deposits
• Compatible with modern emission control systems and catalytic converters

Meets Industry Standards: API SP Resource Conserving, ILSAC GF-6A, GM DEXOS 1 GEN3, and multiple OEM approvals including Ford, Chrysler, FIAT, and Volkswagen specifications.

When to Use / Replace?

Replacement Interval: Follow your vehicle manufacturer's recommended service schedule, typically every 10,000–15,000 km or 6–12 months, whichever comes first. Modern synthetic oils like this formula can extend intervals in some vehicles—always consult your owner's manual.

Best For: Gasoline-powered cars and light commercial vehicles requiring 5W-30 viscosity. Ideal for turbocharged, direct-injection engines and vehicles with high-performance demands.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Unopened containers maintain quality for several years when kept away from extreme heat and direct sunlight.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I use this oil in older vehicles?
A: Yes. This oil is backward compatible with earlier API standards (SN Plus, SN, SM, SL) and ILSAC GF-5, GF-4, so it works safely in older gasoline engines that originally called for 5W-30.

Q: Will this oil improve my fuel economy?
A: The synthetic formula reduces internal engine friction, which can help improve fuel efficiency. Actual gains depend on your driving habits, vehicle condition, and engine type.

Q: Is this suitable for turbocharged engines?
A: Yes. This oil is specifically formulated to protect turbocharged and direct-injection gasoline engines, preventing low-speed pre-ignition (LSPI) and maintaining performance under high stress.
